Machine‐Learning‐Enabled Wood with Nanopump Functionalization for Solar Interfacial Evaporation
This study employed machine learning to design an iron‐cobalt‐carbon‐wood photothermal material, achieving high‐efficiency evaporation at 2.807 kg m−2 h−1 and excellent salt resistance. The integrated system increased the daily water production efficiency of solar distillation by 1.5 times, providing an innovative solution for sustainable seawater ...

Hydrated Deep Eutectic Solvents for the Sustainable Valorization of Textile Waste
Hydrated metal‐based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) composed of zinc or calcium chlorides, organic acids, and water were developed as low‐viscosity, room‐temperature‐stable media for the sustainable valorization of cotton waste. These formulations effectively disrupted the cellulose fiber structure and processed microcrystalline cellulose, medical‐grade

Lignin removal from corncob by microwave-coupled peroxide treatment [PDF]
Lignocellulosic biomass comprises the crop residues, which remain in large quantities from various stages of crop processing. Its main constituents, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, are interlinked by hydrogen and covalent bonds and form a robust ...

Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.
